1.2 Requirements and Safeguards
You must follow all safeguards and requirements when installing Galaxy hardware.
SAFEGUARDS:
These notes apply to 635-model & 600-model Controllers (and their boards). Please read and follow.
!
WARNING - Failure to obey safety warnings could result in serious bodily injury, death, and/or
damage to equipment, and/or loss of data, and/or undesirable equipment/system operation.
1. Installation and Maintenance:
Installation and maintenance of System Galaxy hardware and software must
be performed by an authorized/certified dealer. Always use best practices when installing and operating
Galaxy equipment and peripheral hardware devices.
2.
Controller Power Supply:
The 635/600-Series Controller uses a power transformer 110 volts alternating
current (110 VAC), however the circuit boards are low-voltage 12 VDC from the internal power supply.
ALWAYS use the power transformer provided with the controller cabinet and the specified power source.
3. Multiple power supplies:
Door Locks should have a separate power supply. If wiring more than 4 proximity
readers on a single controller, technician should install a second power supply to avoid undesirable
operation.
4. Controller Power Source:
controller must be connected to a non-switchable power circuit.
5. Power Hazards:
this equipment should be installed and operated only with the type of power source
indicated in the
instructions (or labels)
.
Serious bodily injury or equipment damage could result.
6. Power Cord Protection: route power cords and other wires/cables wisely.
Avoid
trampling, straining,
pinching or chafing. Electrical shock or equipment damage could occur.
7. Overloading Hazards:
Do not overload the power supplies or equipment.
8. 5-V Reader Voltage Regulation:
Do not connect 5v Reader directly to a 635-DRM. You must install voltage
regulator at reader end. (With 600-DRM/DPIs, install onboard voltage-jumpers in 5-volt position.)
9. Grounding: Do not ground the controller to cold water ground/earth ground.
10. Moisture & Water Hazards:
This equipment is non-condensable and must be mounted in a dry, protected
area.
Do not install or use equipment in/near sources of moisture or exposure to rain, pools, car washes, air
conditioners, sprinklers, or any kind of moisture. Serious injury, death, or equipment damage could occur.
11. Object & Liquid Penetration
Hazards:
Do not insert (or use) objects in the equipment that are not
approved, as they could touch voltage points or short out parts. Never spill, pour or apply any liquid
substance on the equipment.
Failure to heed could result in electrical shock or equipment damage.
12. Cleaning:
Do not clean equipment with water or liquid. Electrical shock or equipment damage could occur.
13. Heat Hazards:
this equipment has
-10º C to +60º C (14 º F to 140 º F)
temperature specs. Avoid mounting
close to heat sources or uncontrolled climates. Equipment failure could result.
14. Static Electricity:
Take standard precautions to avoid static shock if handling the circuit boards.
15. Mounting Safety:
This equipment is designed to be wall mounted. Never place or install this equipment in a
location or manner that is unstable to avoid personal injury or equipment damage.
16. Burden:
do not place or rest any heavy object on this unit – the unit could fall or become detached from its
mounting and result in personal injury or equipment damage.
